Quote from Dajmin :

Yes, rF is finished and supports modding.
It's hardly a shock than an incomplete product loses out to a complete one. Ask them again in a couple of years time and I think the outcome will be a little different.

I think so too, RF isn't the greatest when it comes to physics and FFB. I realize it's down to the mod but I haven't felt a mod yet that lightens the wheel up under oversteer conditions, which should at least happen in the extreme cases.

Quote from Tweaker :

Can't blame Intel for choosing rFactor... afterall the had the bigger deal with a better looking car and a few official F1 circuits to go with it

This isn't about physics, it's about who markets their game in such a way that it takes it to the next level in news like this.... and quite frankly, LFS doesn't do squat for marketing their game unfortuneately. And we should act stunned LFS isn't mentioned in such things? Hell, it's a given.

Still there are more people that play LFS than RF. But it isn't really about that like you said it's all about marketing =)

Just wanted to say congrats to Becky for her STCC License system ticking over the 8000 usermark!!

Quote from Becky Rose :

I care even less about the server I cannot access.

Hehe

Quote from Gentlefoot :

I agree. People need to just accept the fact that over time and with practice people become faster LFS racers. I've done 30 odd thousand miles and competed in top level leagues and know all the circuits. I have only just started racing in the STCC servers and got to Silver licence in a couple of days. I rarely finish outside the top 4. The reason is I have a lot of LFS experience.

Agree totally =) It takes alot of practice to get any type of good times down. Part of this is that every driver is missing a critical part of feeling for the car, G-forces. Another big reason is that even though everyone tries their hardest, it's virtually impossible to replicate real world physics within a game. While making the feeling close, it's still a long ways off from being perfect confusing the driver of what happens in the game to what really would happen in real life.

Interesting =) First I have heard of someone in S1 buying S2 just so they can continue with the STCC licensing =)

Quote from MyBoss :

True, but the thing is that only a few people in LFS does that, and Chaz is definately not one of them. That statistic is nothing but impressive.
Though it could be that the competition i Australia isn't as good as in Europe

Possibly, but not by much I bet, alot of fast drivers everywhere =)

Quote from fujiwara :

Ok.
Since almost no one knows this guy, i'll say just this:

You can put him on the same level as MacEST, Norbi, Lefty ....

Hotlap wise maybe, but there's a big difference in racing these guys and keeping up with them =)

Not saying that he's not fast, just never heard of him, not saying he's not a good racer either. Just don't see him in anything so can't really compair =)

Cmon guys put the swords down playtime is over, your going to get this thread locked...

Quote from MyBoss :

Nice stats atleast.

Races won:2406Second:680Third:294Finished:3795



Impressive

They don't mean a whole lot you could rack up thousands of wins if you ran solo on a private 1 lap server with a couple buddies being filler. Not saying they don't mean anything but there are many ways to mess with the data by running races like I just said.

Quote from goode400 :

I'm in,

PM me with the address for paypal?



I'm in Oxford too....might take you up on that - if you're still offering?

Sure, still room for 3 more =) well 2 if you don't like riding in the middle.

Quote from duke_toaster :

The demo server-style action at FE Rallycross Green. I am looking forward to the other SO Sprint, it looks like there will be more of the same there.

I think there is still a gag order in place for the drivers about round 7 so we cannot comment, but I cannot wait either!!! Should be awesome

Quote from AndroidXP :

Hahaha, exceptional math and verbal skills.

Haha we know from your result alone that the test doesn't mean anything =P

Bah only 77 here

Hehe yeah these tests mean absolutly nothing, but still fun =)

Quote from Bean0 :

You need a poll mate

My favourite to watch was probably the FE RallyX Green round, as I missed the race due to connection issues and it was all new and unexpected

Yeah I thought of that after I hit post =)

Mods could I have a temp right to add a poll? Or could a mod pls add a poll please =)

:edit: Found the option =)

As a driver I really enjoyed round 5, for obvious reasons! =)

I was curious what are people's favorite round of Broadcast, and why??

At the end of the day this is for YOU, the spectator, any feedback would be very welcomed =)

I have had a few comments that people really enjoyed round 6. Do you agree?

Funny how when someone is shown hard facts they plainly ignore it. Sounds like someone is having a complex of poor me syndrom.

Look at me look at me I am a demo user and I get picked on and discriminated against!

I will repost what I said a few posts ago incase your missed it the first time...

Another thing is exactly how many people slag demo users? 10? 30? 50? There is over 15k users registered on LFS forums giving you : pulls out calculator: If 50 people slagged demo users that’s 1/3 of 1% of just the forum users or .33333% This isn't including the 30k plus LFS S2 registered people. Bringing that number in 1/2 again. I think there are even more S2 users than 30k come to think of it.

Saying that many people slag Demo users on this forum just isn't correct. Yes there are some bad apples but as a whole we welcome with open arms =)

There is a relatively small group of people that hit Demo users hard that actively using the forum, please don't mind them, they don't know what they are on =)

I have always liked shorter tracks. All of my seattime in the MRTwas in S1 =)

Quote from Cr!t!calDrift :

T_T its seems alot like people are using a license to get a status.

And Im staying on demo for the sake of the reputation getting tarnished, however my budget permits an s2 license. If I get my father to agree to it *rubs chin*

All my demo friends are gone, plenty of people left are just people like me, demo veterans without a license. A new era will come along, but i'll probably have s2 by then. Is there an s2 coming out though...? im kinda lost @_@

AtomAnt- If you don't like the topic, dont post in it.



Conclusion: From what I have seen, s2 racers hold alot of discrimination and impatience, when stated otherwise *rubs chin and looks at s14racer- (Drifter?) 's signature*

Nice grab! =)

I am in =)

I will have my car by then too so if anyone needs a lift Oxford and south near the A34 let me know I could pick you up.
